About Secrets Aboard! (Unabridged)

Luka trades the short-term approval of his lover by helping with a home robbery for the gilded cage of Captain Clarke's cruise ship. A year of servitude, a court-mandated reprieve from prison, all thanks to his influential fathers deal. Sadly, Lukas immediate future includes scrubbing the decks and hauling suitcases, a stark contrast to the prison sentence he could have faced alongside his lover, Maleko. Haunted by the ghost of his lovers absence and his own guilt, Luka grapples with newfound tenderness coming from the least expected person. Captain Westly John Clarke, an experienced maritime hardliner, enforces the courts contract with grim adherence. Beneath the surface, something shifts. Lukas boyish charm chips away at the older mans icy exterior. Still, he keeps Luka at arms length, unable to forget the bitter memories of the young mans past. As the Captain battles his own awakening heart and hidden secrets, his compass spins out of control, adding to the chaos. As the love story etches in the shadow of a criminal past and the unforgiving grip of duty leaves them both adrift in uncharted waters. Only time and the churning sea will tell if they admit whats in their hearts.
